This is a beautiful horn hair comb / Peigne d’Alger. The hinge allows the heading to rotate so that the ornament can be worn in various positions and swing as the wearer moves. It could be sited within a chignon with the top folded down or worn in various positions in a coiffure.

Large vintage faux tortoishell haircomb or Mantilla comb, known as peinetas in Spain. The perfect bold hair accessory for your vintage chic or retro chic wardrobe...

These large hair combs were used, by Spanish ladies, to hold the black lace scarf, mantilla, to the top of the head. They were often made of tortoiseshell, celluloid, or other plastic, dyed to look like tortoiseshell. They were carved, or molded, to resemble intricate Spanish lace. These combs were also worn without a mantilla, placed in the side or back of the hairdressing at an acute angle, and in such a way that the piece was clearly seen. This enabled the often beautiful openwork decoration or the decorative effect which had been applied to the material, to be viewed from all angles, and for the details to be seen effectively outlined against the light.
